Click got 'grass? logo above to hear any of my 72 interviews with the top musicians in bluegrass. They have been open and honest in discussing their lives.

​​​
David Peterson ​
He's called the caretaker of traditionl buegrass and country music for a reason. He's an independent recording artist whose powerful voice is full of Bill Monroe, Jimmy Martin and Hank Williams' blues. Stars like Stuart Duncan, Vince Gill, David Grisman and Sam Bush, love to record live with him, gathered around a single mic.
​​
​
Josh Williams
One of the premier bluegrass musicians of our time. This conversation centered on Tony Rice, with whom Josh played for 5 years, and shared a friendship for twenty. ​He shared lots of Tony Rice stories and fond memories, some funny, some painful. You can feel the love and sadness in this conversation. Josh still misses his friend.
